Dewaxed Garnet Shellac Flakes 1/2 lb, or 8 oz, Quality, Antique Restoration

Description: Detailed instructions will be included with your order.Garnet is the most popular color. It produces a rich full color warm looking general finish. It has a wonderful clarity and depth of shine. It will produce one of the most beautiful finishes in woodworking.The best way to store your Shellac is in its dry flake state. If it is stored in a cool dry place, its shelf life can be up to many years. Warmth will cause the flakes to stick together. I personally grind my shellac into a fine powder with an inexpensive coffee grinder prior to mixing to speed the process. Please mix your shellac with a high grade alcohol. This will ensure a great finish without blotching. Stir frequently until dissolved. Instructions and useful hints are included.Garnet Shellac produces a dark reddish brown colored French Polish which is often used in antique restoration and fine finishes. It looks very nice when a warm glow is desired to enhance light colored woods. High quality shellac has many uses not only in antique restoration but refinishing, sealing for other finishes or to hold objects in place to be engraved, chased or diamond setting. The photo of our shellac is taken to display its truest color. Please note that layers, pound mix and wood color will come into play on your finished product. Samples should be used prior to finishing your final piece to ensure a perfectly finished product.Different colors of shellac can be layered to provide various shades on the finished product. This shade looks especially good on lighter colored woods. Shellac also works well with stains, dyes, varnishes, and other coatings such as Waterlox or Polyurethane. Please feel free to ask me any questions. Thanks.
